MATH.11:9 - Consequences

A small equation system can replace an unbounded search for an impossible construction. The resulting relation can also derive an output formula or narrow the next construction to candidates consistent with it.

The method’s cost depends on the chosen expressions and substitutions. Weighted totals are often inexpensive; polynomial expansion can grow quickly. When an invariant leaves the consequential question open, a constructive path or a different mathematical method may be the better next move.
